Steven Rowe commented on LUCENE-1873:
-------------------------------------

I think we should add generation of {{Contrib-Changes.html}} from 
{{contrib/CHANGES.txt}} to the {{changes-to-html}} target in {{build.xml}}:

{code:xml}
<exec executable="perl" input="contrib/CHANGES.txt" 
output="${changes.target.dir}/Contrib-Changes.html" failonerror="true">
  <arg value="${changes.src.dir}/changes2html.pl"/>
</exec>
{code}

and then link to it from near the top of {{lucene-sandbox/index.xml}}, 
something like:

{code:html}
<p>
  See <a 
href="http://lucene.apache.org/java/2_9_0/changes/Contrib-Changes.html";>Contrib 
CHANGES</a> for changes included in the current release.
</p>
{code}

> The page has misleading/bad info. One thing I would like to do - but I won't 
> attempt now (prob good for the modules issue) - is commit to one word - 
> contrib or sandbox. I think sandbox should be purged myself.
> The current page says that the sandbox is kind of a rats nest with various 
> early stage software that one day may make it into core - that info is 
> outdated I think. We should replace it, and also specify how the back compat 
> policy works in contrib eg each contrib can have its own policy, with the 
> default being no policy.
> We should also drop the piece about being open to Lucene's committers and 
> others - a bit outdated.
> We should also either include the other contribs, or change the wording to 
> indicate that the list is only a sampling of the many contribs.
